MOUNT PILATUS A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE ABOVE LUCERNE

 

Whether you take the world's steepest cogwheel railway from Alpnachstad or the panorama gondolas and aerial cableway from Kriens, the Mount Pilatus offers a unique alpine experience! 

 

 

“Dragon Mountain” offers a wide-range of leisure and recreational amenities.

 

 

"During my business stays on the Lucerna Lake, I looked up to the Pilatus Mountain’s peak. As soon as I had the opportunity, I took the chance to climb it with the cable car to enjoy the Lake view from the peak.

I prefer it in fall when the main color is red and the tourists are less. If you have the opportunity, enjoy the sunset or the sunrise from there "

Fabio

 

 

With two aerial cableways, two hotels, seven restaurants, the world's steepest cogwheel railway, Central Switzerland's largest suspension rope park and Switzerland's longest summer toboggan run, the Pilatus promises hours of enjoyment.

THE MUSEGG WALL OF LUCERNE

 

The celebrated city walls with their nine towers form part of the historic fortifications built around Lucerne from the 13th century. The wall is still almost entirely intact.

 

 

Four of the Musegg Towers are open to the public; the Zytturm in particular, is well worth a visit, for it houses the city’s oldest clock, built in 1535 by one Hans Luter. It is allowed to chime every hour one minute before all the city’s other clocks.

 

A medieval feeling, discovering the historic fortifications of Lucerne


From the three publicly accessible towers you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city and the lake.

LUCERNE PEARL OF SWITZERLAND 

 

Thanks to its impressive mountain panorama, its lakeside setting, its charming historic centre and accessibility to limitless excursions, Lucerne (Luzern in German) has become a very prominent destination of the Swiss Alps.

 

 

The impressive medieval Chapel Bridge forms the centrepiece of Lucerne’s townscape and is considered to be one of the oldest covered wooden bridges in Europe.

Lucerne city espresses its beauty through its squares, churches, well maintained historic town houses, decorated with frescoes and a romantic car-free centre.

 

A magic historical center with the most beautiful bridge of the Alps

 

Here, tradition and modernity stand side-by-side, as the town has also earned itself a reputation for innovative design. The futuristic Culture and Convention Centre (KKL), designed by leading French architect Jean Nouvel, is one the architectural highlights of the town. The KKL is also the landmark for the «Lucerne: Festival City», a venue which organizes a wide variety of cultural events throughout the year.


Lucerne is the ideal starting point for many excursions to the highlights of central Switzerland. A trip up one of Lucerne’s regional mountains, the Pilatus or the Rigi – the queen of mountains – is a must. That said, an adventure up the Stanserhorn, the Bürgenstock or a steamship cruise on Lake Lucerne with its many bends would be equally thrilling.
